In NLUO for 2023 batch, Indus hired 7 people, and 2 of them are in Cap Marks. For 2024, Indus have hired 6 people till now, and only one of them has got PPO in Cap Marks.
A degree from a Top NLU used to guarantee a job or atleast help with getting a t1 law firm job 5-7 years back. The same is not true anymore, as law firms are beginning to rot with incompetent partners, hiring though contacts culture, (NLUO example above), Internships being closed to contacts or those with certain backgrounds, very ill informed and lazy HR practices, extremely toxic culture of law firms with no humanity left, but not paying adequately, resulting in clients realising unethical practices in billing promoting them to shift to in house cultures and not rely on law firms, firms paying Rs. 3000 as stipends to interns with some proudly calling it unpaid internships and milking all the work while providing no prospect nor encouragement towards employment or long term engagements in the name of "learning". Incompetent professors in the NLUs marking very badly and shift from issue spotting culture to rote learning again, again disadvantageous because firms are shortlisting the top 5 students and calling it merit. Firms hiring more from Lower NLUs/ private colleges in bulk early because of contacts/ long term internships due to location (which is not discriminatory), but resulting in shortage of slots for NLS, NALSAR and NUJS kids who live in forests and cannot do these internships long term due to illegible and shitty attendance requirements.
It is you who can't compete with them due to your high headedness and then you blame the system.
